The
Messe Frankfurt Group remains stronger than ever in 2018 as its financial position and event portfolio are concerned. Speaking at
the Corporate Press Conference earlier today, Wolfgang Marzin,
President and Chief Executive Officer of Messe Frankfurt, announced:
“We are aiming for around €700 million in sales.” After a very dynamic
first six months, projections for the second half of the year are also
good.

Since 2010, Messe Frankfurt Group sales have increased by around 50
percent – from €448 million to around €669 million in 2017. Annual net
income is in the region of €41 million, which is the second-best figure in the
company’s history.

Wolfgang Marzin explained the company’s successful
growth as follows: “With our three business fields – Fairs & Events,
Locations and Services – we have a well-established business model and a
solid foundation for further development.” The company is strategically
driving forward its new business, with 25 events making their debut this year.
Wolfgang Marzin: “The synergies that we achieve within our companies
around the world are strengths that we can use profitably and sustainably.”
